A physical model study of shear wave splitting and fracture intensity

SEG Technical Program Expanded Abstracts 1987, 1987
Abstract In a series of physical model experiments, fractured media are simulated by stacks of thin Plexiglas sheets clamped together tightly to form blocks. The plates are assembled underwater, and a very thin water layer between the sheets prevents formation of an effectively welded interface between them. Thus, the stacked material

On shear-wave splitting in the Los Angeles basin

pure and applied geophysics, 1990
Three-component seismograms at the three USC stations, PVP, GFP and DHB, have been examined. Most earthquakes, with magnitudes ranging from 1.4 to 5.0, within a period from 1985 to 1988, show evidence of shear-wave splitting. The preferred polarization of the first split-shear wave arrivals at PVP is nearly in N-S which is consistent with both regional

Shear wave splitting and subcontinental mantle deformation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1991
We have made measurements of shear wave splitting in the phases SKS and SKKS at 21 broadband stations in North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Measurements are made using a retrieval scheme that yields the azimuth of the fast polarization direction ϕ and delay time δt of the split shear wave plus uncertainties.

Shear-wave splitting in the Rajasthan craton, India

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences, 2019
Abstract The shear-wave splitting parameters (i.e. fast axes orientation (ψ) and delay time (δt)) are measured at four broadband stations in Rajasthan, using SKS/SKKS core phases from three-component broadband waveforms of 30 events recorded during 2014–16.
